Lyrics Holding On To What I Can't Hold - Nashville Cast, Mark Collie

Holding On To What I Can't Hold

It was so easy when I was younger
It didn’t take much to feed the hunger
Somewhere along you lose the innocence
No idea where it mighta went
Spend your whole life looking for something
I’m holding on
I’m holding on
In my life is just the way it goes
Holding on
Holding on
It’s hard to admit when you can’t control
Holding on to what I can’t hold
You had a reason for packing and leaving
I’ve got a reason for wanting and reaching
I’m not as big as I thought I was
Didn’t go down the way I thought it would
I don’t even know what it is I’m needing
I’m holding on
I’m holding on
In my life is just the way it goes
I’m holding on
Holding on
It’s hard to admit when you can’t control
Holding' on to what I can’t hold
You find it and you drink it
And you hold it and you smoke it
Spend your whole life looking for something
I’m holding on
I’m holding on
In my life that’s just the way it goes
Holding on
Holding on
Hard to admit when you can’t control
Holding on to what I can’t hold
